MOOD HEALTH For WOMEN

Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food Re : stores Weak, Sickiy Women to Robust Health.

Any irregularities in the monthly uterine action is sufficient cause for women to be alarmed about their health. Whether painful, suppressed or profuse menstruation, the cause can be traced to some derangement of the nerves.

A few boxes of Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nervs Food will completely build up the exhausted merves and restore the regular monthly action which removes from the body the clogged mat- ter that would otherwise cause pain and serious disease,

It is as « restorative for pale, weak women that Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Food has been singularly successful. |,t counteracts the debi- litating diseases peculiar to women by feeding the nerves and creating new nerve fluid, the vital foree of the hiiman bedy.

Dr. A. W. Chase’s Nerve Food has restored scores of hundreds of weak, sickly women ta robust health. soc. a box at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto,

Balzac a error to Printers. With no inborn literary facility, with an inborn artistic conscience that drove him on in untiring pursuit of perfec- tion, Balzac filled the vast chasm be- tween his thought and its expression with countless pen strokes and by methods of composition all his own, the exact reverse of those of Dumas, writing at white heat, never rewriting, or of Hugo, who said, “Il know not the art of soldering a beauty in the place of a defect, and I correct myself in an- other work.”

Balzac began with a short and sketchy and slipshod skeleton, making no attempt toward sequence or style, and sent it, with all its errors, to the printer. Proofs were returned to him in small sections pasted in the center of huge sheets, around whose wide bor- ders soon shot from the central text rockets and squibs of the author’s ad- ditions and corrections fired by his in- furiated fist. The new proofs came back on similar sheets, to be returned to the printer again like the web and tracks of a tipsy spider. This was re- peated a dozen or, it is said, a score of times, always with amplifications, until his typesetters became palsied luna- tics. He overheard one of them as he entered the office one day say: “I’ve done my hour of Baizac. Who takes him next?’ Typesetter, publisher, au- thor, were put out of misery only when the last proof came in, at its foot the magic “Bon a tirer.””—Scribner’s.

General Grant Owns Up.

When General Grant came to Liver- pool and was entertained at the town hall, a quite unknown Liverpool man wrote to the mayor with many apolo- gies, but asking if he might take the liberty of asking for a few minutes’ conversation with the great soldier. The mayor hesitated, but found a way of mentioning the matter to the great man, who, without hesitation, said, “Certainly; let the gentleman come.” Hecame. He said to the gen- eral: “Now, sir, utter amateur as I am, 1 have followed every step of the war, and 1 think 1 understand every movement except one. On such a day you were. there and the southerners were there,” pointing to plans on a map that he had brought. “Now, it seems to me that you ought certainly to have gone there, whereas you went there,” pointing again. General Grant, the usually taciturn and when not taciturn phenomenally terse, just took the cigar from his mouth and said: “You're right, sir! Infernal blunder!” And in a moment the amateur strat- egist, beaming now, was courteously dismissea.—“That Reminds Me,” by Sir Edward Russell.

a young lawyer named Cassidy, who wore his hair pompadour, assumed an air of great dignity and was apparent- ly greatly impressed with his own im- portance. Upon several occasions dur- ing the progress of the trial Thurman referred to his legal opponent as “Mr. Necessity.” The young man arose whesever this occurred and with great gravity reminded the court that his name was Cassidy. Finally, after the offense had been repeated about a dozen times, the pompous attorney ex- claimee:

“] must again remind counsel upon the other side that my name is Cas- sidy. 1 can’t understand why he per- sists in maintaining that it is Neces- sity.”

“I beg the gentleman’s pardon,” said Thurman. “The reason I keep getting him confused with Necessity is, | pre- sume, due to the fact that the latter a no law.”—Chicago Times-Her- ald.
